Sovereign to Immortality

Chapter 18 – Startling Bow

“Charge forward and kill him!”

The moment Su Baozhang took out the Yellow Ox Celestial Spirit was discovered by the young cultivators. If the young cultivators thought that the Yellow Ox had died before, then they would have instantly gone crazy upon seeing the immortal spirit.

A middle-grade immortal spirit, not to mention a Niu Huang immortal spirit that was rarely seen amongst middle-grade immortal spirits!

Didn’t the Banyan Mountain already get plowed twice by the young cultivators of the and the various Prominent Classes? How could they let someone find a Mountain Crashing Bull so easily!

They didn’t think about the fact that although the adult Mountain Crash might be able to give birth to a middle-grade immortal spirit, its nature was known for its savage and immense strength, and its strength was comparable tigh-grade vicious beast. When it met someone, it would not rest until it was dead.

Furthermore, the sect disciples and the rich and powerful cultivators were all people with valuable bodies and bones. Naturally, they did not want to take the risk, which was why this adult Mountain Crashing Bull had been able to escape the two Celestial Hunts until now.

They only thought that as long as they could stop Su Baozhang, the yellow immortal spirit in his hands would belong to them.

Even if they underestimated the strength of that Mountain Bull, sucuge beast like that was definitely not something that Su Baozhang could kill alone. Does that mean that he still had an accomplice hiding behind him, and that he would be ambushed if he were to rush!

However, there were more than ten young cultivators rushing over from two different directions. Other than three or five who had bright minds, the rest of them were also rushing over. Even if the other party had an ambush, they would still be able to deal with both sides.

The moment Su Baozhang found the Fairy Spirit in the cow’s stomach, he turned around and ran towards the forest where Yang Junshan was. He didn’t even bother to pick up the Fine Steel Firewood Knife from the ground.

“Don’t run, leave the celestial spirits behind!”

The many youths behind him all shouted in harmony, each one of them so excited that their faces were flushed red, as they merely chased after Su Baozhang.

Just as Su Baozhang was about to run into the forest, a youth finally couldn’t hold himself back. He took out a fully nocked crossbow, placed a duck feather arrow in the middle of the arrow slot, and aimed it at Su Baozhang’s back.

However, before the youth could pull the trigger, there was a loud bang, and a soft whistle pierced the air. The moment the boy realized that something was wrong, a heart-piercing pain came from his leg, and the teenager yelled out loudly before throwing away the crossbow in his hand. He bent down and hugged his left leg, letting out a loud wail.

The hearts of the youths chasing behind Su Baozhang all shook, they unconsciously slowed down, and a few of them immediately took out the Guardian Talisman that they received from the Heaven-Shaken Sect when they entered the Banyan Mountain.

Although this talisman could directly defend against an attack that was the same as the fierce beast at the fifth level of Mortal Realm, that was only when the talisman was released, and Yang Junshan’s Iron Feather Arrow obviously would not give them any time to react.

“What’s there to be afraid of? We have defensive talismans, so his arrows aren’t able to harm us!”

At the same time, there was also the sound of a string being drawn. The youth thought that the situation was not good and was about to crush the talisman in his hand, but unexpectedly, a sharp pain suddenly came from his arm. In the blink of an eye, he saw that an arrow had pierced through his arm, and the talisman was floating down to the ground from his hand.

The boy, who was previously full of confidence, looked at his pierced arm with eyes filled with terror. He also started to squat on the ground and began to cry, while the other teenagers around him hesitated. If the arrow that pierced their feet was a mistake, then the arrow that pierced their wrists was a naked warning.

In this period of everyone’s time of hesitation, Su Baozhang had already crawled and rolled all the way into the forest, only now did the few youths seem to wake up from their stupor, and they found it hard to give up on the temptation of a middle ranked immortal spirit.

“There’s only one person shooting the arrows. Including the one who just escaped into the forest, there’s only two people. We have fourteen people altogether. If we all rush up together, we can handle a few of his arrows, not to mention he might not kill us!”

A young man hiding behind a rock by the stream encouraged his companions, and after shooting two arrows in the forest, he no longer heard the sound of the bowstring. This made the young man, who had just been intimidated, once again feel greedy, and almost at the same time, stood up from their bunkers and rushed into the forest.

At this moment, the sound of another bowstring came from the forest, and this time, it was much louder than the previous two.

“Oh, no!”

A few loud shouts rang out, and aboualf of the youths were so frightened that they directly fell onto the ground. Two of them even directly crushed the Guardian Talismans in their hands. Rays of earthen yellow colored barriers rose up, enveloping these few youths within the barriers.

The teenagers’ eyes quickly shifted. They were all paying attention to which unlucky soul had been hit by the arrow this time. However, after looking around, they found that everyone was fine, and they couldn’t find any trace of Tie Yu’s arrow either.

All of the youths looked at each other. Suddenly, one of them shouted, “Fuck, we were tricked. That guy didn’t shoot an arrow at all. He just pulled his bowstring to scare us!”

From the moment they attempted to snatch the Yellow Ox Celestial Spirit, the archer in the forest had only released two arrows and pulled the empty bowstring. However, the dozen or so youngsters were all playing around in shock, fear, and anger towards the archer’s various teasing.

“We can’t just forget about it. The forest is about 40 to 50 steps away from us. If we can shoot the arrow this far and keep its accuracy, it must be a strong bow with at least 2 stones or more. How many times can we draw such a strong bow?”

“That’s right, there was a son of the Wasteland Town who pulled a three-pronged stone bow at the square in front of the enclosure field. He had only released seventy percent of his energy, and by this time, the archer is probably not able to shoot any more iron arrows!”

“Maybe the archer in the forest is the one you saw in the square!”

“Chase after them! Chase after them! The two of them won’t be able to escape!”

Taking advantage of the effect of the talisman, they charged into the forest once again. This time, there were no Iron Feather Bow arrows shooting out from the forest, and after a few youths saw this, they immediately rushed into the forest. Seeing this, a few of the youths who were still hesitating hurriedly caught up, and even two or three of the youths who had purposely slowed down were convinced that the archers in the forest no longer had the strength to fight back, so they also chased after them.

Besides the two teenagers who were still wailing after being shot by the iron arrows, there were only three or four youths left who had not been chasing after them. They looked at each other and seemed to understand their intentions, and then the four teenagers each drew out their swords and daggers, walking towards the huge Mountain Bull’s corpse.

However, the rest of the hide, beef, and bones were all good ingredients used to toughen the bones. The archers in the forest were very skilled in archery, so they might as well break down the useful part of the mountain bull instead of risking their lives to steal the immortal spirit. There was only one Yellow Ox, but this fat mountain bull was more than enough for everyone to share.

At this moment, a streak of light streaked across the horizon, and a soul-stirring pressure had already descended beside the stream. The youths dissecting the corpses of the Mountain Crashing Bull all turned deathly pale under this pressure, and stopped what they were doing.

When he raised his eyes to take a look, he saw a white faced and beheaded cultivator that was about thirty years of age standing on top of a tree, looking down on everyone.

This person was one of the three Heaven-Shaken Sect Cultivators called Zhang Fengyi when the Banyan Mountain’s enclosure was being opened. While all the youths were quiet like a cicada, this person had already seen everything that had happened here. When he saw the massive Mountain Crash Bull’s corpse beside the stream and the injuries on the two arrows that were being shot from the screaming youth, the corners of this person’s eyes slightly twitched.

“Do the two of you still want to continue hunting?”

Zhang Feng asked the two injured youths as if it was a common occurrence instead of being the first time they had been saved.

The two teenagers had long been scared to death by the arrow wounds on their bodies. There was no courage to continue as they cried out, “No, never!”

“Senior, quickly save me!”

With a wave of his sleeve, two flickering, weak, scarlet-red, talismans floated down from the treetops. The instant they fell into their wounds, the two iron arrows instantly broke off and fell to the ground from both sides of the gaping wound.

The instant the blood gushed out from the wound, two scarlet spirit runes merged with the blood in the wound, and the two wounds immediately began to congeal and scab.

At this moment, from the nearby forest came a burst of ghostly wails and howls, the sound of noisy footsteps came from within the forest, closely followed by a few young men crawling out of the forest. All of them had wounds on their bodies, and they looked very unsightly.

Zhang Fengyi could tell with a single glance that these teenagers were trapped in a trap set up in the woods, and these methods were usually laid down by some extremely experienced hunters when they were hunting in the forest. Thinking of this, a faint smile finally appeared on Zhang Feng’s face.
